Oil in injector housing?

[Scrrem]

Looks like I will be doing this operation....I bought some injector housings from what I was told was a 90 car..OPPS. They are 91 injector housings, now that they have been ported, I guess I need to get some plugs and try my hand at plugging these things up .

Hi Rich:

I know this guy who has a 91 (that finally feels like a CAR instead of an antique statue) that would gladly take your IHs if you really want to stay all 90. In fact that pleneum looks like a 91 also... Just want to make sure you know you won't loose anything if you decide to keep your car all 90.

Hey Paul,
Not worried about keeping it all 90, just bugs me the ebay seller advertised them as 90 parts when in fact they were 91+. Oh well, live and learn, I know better now. I have some plugs coming, I will plug up the holes and move on.

If you change your mind... just say the word and I'll run over!!! What you have, even if it's the wrong year, is pretty AWESOME work!

EDIT: Rock auto has the 550-013 for .20ea but sold in a pack of 10 for $2.00

Man, these little buggers are tough to find locally in my neck of the woods..3 Autozones, 1 Pep Boys and even a local machine shop...no luck. Will try ordering online.

Rich,
If you don't have any luck I can turn you out a set on the lathe out of aluminum.

I also had luck using 555-091...Western auto has them as a 1" plug


I think there are 2 different hole sizes in the IHs, I had one set that needed over 1" and one that did not

Thanks Phil, I was able to order some from Summit, they are back ordered. I will look at some shops when I am in AZ.

Soooooo, I've got 91 IH coming for my 90. That means I need to do something. Are we still using freeze plugs, or have we come up with something better? Thanks Locobob for the heads up on this. This would have been a big stumbleing block trying to do this over a weekend.
